Dr R.K. Pachauri
Chairman, Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)
The very fact that we’re not trying to brush the error done by IPCC under the carpet and have instead come out and apologised, proves that we’re clean. This issue might give a handle to the climate skeptics, but I’d say that they are just on the lookout for anything that can demolish the history of scientific concept. In the last few years we have created enormous amount of awareness on climate change, which is disturbing them. In Washington D.C alone, there are 1200 lobbyists being funded by about 770 companies to stop this awareness that is being generated. And this is the figure only for United States…

The retraction is acceptance of the factual position. Skepticism will not help, particularly developing countries, since they will suffer most from increase in temperature; even by 2°C, drought, floods and sea level will rise.
The lesson from the recent retraction is that the scientific body, which was at one time led by world leaders in climate science like Bert Bolin, should again regain its scientific credibility.
